Society & Culture - 9 December 2006

I'm sure everyone has had the sense that they were put on this is earth for some reason or another. However, I feel as though I have no idea at all what I am supposed to do.

Not to sound conceided or anything, but I do feel there is something about me that is unique yet undiscovered.

Anyone have any ideas of what I can do or who to talk to? Anything?

If you or someone you know ever experienced seeing a Ghost or lived in a Haunted House please share your stories with me here. I have experienced a haunting and seen accounts of negative spirits, so I’ll know the difference between truthful stories and fake ones.

I live in apartment-style residence on campus. I have my own apartment but I share laundry facilities with other GRAD students (we're NOT first-year students or anything!) Today I did some laundry and put it in the dryer. When I came back to collect my laundry, I found that someone had ADDED their wet laundry to mine in the dryer! They were trying to steal drying time from me! It resulted in MY clothes not being fully dry. Plus, their gross laundry included BLOOD-STAINED thongs! How DISGUSTING is that? I took all their clothes out of the dryer, put them in a plastic bag and hung them with a note on my RA's door. Frankly, I don't think that I was rude enough. If this happens again what should I do?

I can't believe GRAD STUDENTS could be so disgusting and immature! I feel like I'm living in a pig pen!

…and god DID create the world, he created Adam and Eve and he sent his only son Jesus to save the world and he could hear your prayers etc etc…

Would it be a disappointment to you if, god revealed himself and turned out to be an alien with apparent god like powers, but which could all be explained without resorting to the paranormal and the supernatural?

Well I have contemplated the thought of wearing hijab full time but I haven't been able to make the commitment yet. So I was wondering what age you decided to wear your hijab? and why(not just simply for Allah I understand that but what really encouraged you to make the commitment)?

I'm writing a story in which a Christian gets turned into a vampire and has to overcome the other non-Christian vampires. I'm not sure if I'm being sacreligious or not.
Also, in a fictional story, how far can you go with heaven?

I have seen some stupid answers to honest straight forward religious questions. People who know nothing about what they are talking about should shut up and leave answers to people who use their brains and check facts and figures before they answer

I know a guy who will not use a public mens' room. He came with me and some friends to do some Christmas shopping last week. When we stopped to get gas and snacks at a convenience store, he urinated around the back of the building- outdoors where passersby could see him! We all found it disgusting and revolting that he would pull such a stunt- after all, there were clean restrooms both at the store and at the mall where we'd been. He simply said, "I don't like using the mens' room." According to one of my pals, he does that a lot, and it's the same excuse every time. Why???

I see on the news where Baptists are starting to talk about the Rupture, and they even capitalize it -- hey, I'd like to know what's going on.
I did a search on the internet and RUPTURE turned up nothing but stuff I couldn't even understand, and the photos were digusting.

Islam was born from war. (Muhammad military conquests, see MUHAMMAD’S 26 BATTLES: http://www.islam.com/chronology.htm )

Islam has never stopped being at war. Some people think the wars between the invading Muslims and the Crusaders was the big war, but that was nothing compared to most of the other Islamic wars. Consider the "Arab Invasions" where Muslim invaders committed history's greatest genocide:

Chapter 4 - Islam and the Muslim Invasions “Let it be said right away: the massacres perpetuated by Muslims in India are unparalleled in history, bigger than the Holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis; or the massacre of the Armenians by the Turks” http://www.nalanda.nitc.ac.in/resources/english/etext-project/history/gautier/chapter4.html

Almost all armed conflicts today are Islamic. Look at the conflicts in: Chechnya, Uzbekistan, Thailand, Somolia, Sudan and Dafur genocide, Chad, Phillipines, Indonesia, Lebanon, Palastine, Iraq, Algeria, Southern India, Kashmir, etc..
